    Determination of significant factors of landslide processes and flooding
    (Видавництво Львівської політехніки, 2020-02-10) Katkov, Mykhailo; Malovanyy, Myroslav; Kotsiuba, Iryna; Senchuk, Tetyana; Lavinda, Maryna; Kharkiv National University of Urban Economy named after O. M. Beketov; Lviv Polytechnic National University; Zhytomyr Polytechnic State University
    The linear dependence of some geological (significant) factors responsible for landslide and flooding processes on the cost of geotechnical surveys determining these factors was proved. The principle of selection of engineering-geological surveys, which assess the factors of occurrence of landslide and flooding with high probability, was developed. The possibility of identifying economic territories that may be susceptible to landslide and flooding processes based on already existing basic data of previously conducted engineering-geological surveys is substantiated. A preproject (planned) method of calculating the costs of geotechnical surveys based on the existing basic data is proposed.

    Environmental safety management of substandard pesticide residues and remediation and reclamation of contaminated soil
    (Lviv Politechnic Publishing House, 2019-02-26) Petruk, Roman; Katkov, Mykhailo; Vinnytsia National Technical University; O. M. Beketov National University of Urban Economy in Kharkiv
    In Ukraine, there is still a great number of unused, unidentified and substandard pesticide preparations (PPs) and other toxic substances which have an extremely dangerous impact on humans and other living ecosystems and the environment. Besides, more than 75 thousand tons of pesticides are imported and produced annually in Ukraine, but some of them are not used during the period of their suitability. Consequently, when stored mostly in dilapidated warehouses and repositories of agrochemicals, as well as in the open areas, they fall into underground and ground water, and then through trophic chains into the organisms of living systems, causing severe poisoning and diseases. We note that till now, the problem of unsuitable PPs was solved only in the context of their utilization or export for processing outside the state, while the rest of this ecological problem – the restoration of soils and the remediation of contaminated lands at the state level, is not virtually solved. Therefore, the substantiation of the scientific and practical aspects of environmental safety management of such remediation processes is on time.
